It should if it fits on other kinds of M1 Carbines.
Anywhere from the late 950's to the 1980-90's.
Roughly mid-1960s. Universal is gone, and so are their records of production.

Sorry, but know of no public database for these rifles. Generally they are not in the same database as military M1 carbines.
100-340 or so
The Universal company did make a civilian version of the M1 Carbine. Not all of the Universals use the same parts as the military issue M1 carbine. Please note this is caliber .30 Carbine, and not the 30-06 caliber of the M1 Garand rifle.
$75 to $400 US depending on the condition.

Universals are a civilian version of the M1 carbine, made after WW 2. No serial number data is available for the civilian carbines- sorry.
ABOUT 1962-63. I say ABOUT since Universal is gone, and so are their production records. Yours may be from the first year or two that the Universal brand was used.
